Not requesting changes because I'm about to go out, but please address this feedback before landing

| 459 ↗ | (On Diff #19261) | Please make this look like the rest. You should always, always try to follow existing language when editing docs. Putting a command directly in like this instead of an English sentence, and not even wrapping it in a code block or inline code element is clearly a huge departure from the style in the docs. When you are editing the docs, YOU need to think of yourself as the editor of a technical doc. Part of an Editor's job is to maintain consistent style. Please think of this going forward, and please integrate this feedback into your workflow so I don't need to act as the team's only Editor. We need everybody on the team to be thoughtful about this |

| 459–475 ↗ | (On Diff #19317) | Actually, not even clear why we need this part. The use of squadcal_url.json on dev is only necessary for handling the situation where an existing dev has a "sticky" urlPrefix set in the Redux store of the Comm app on a simulator/emulator, right? Somebody running through the dev_environment.md doc on their first go shouldn't have this issue... they'll get the new port-3000 urlPrefix from D5846 |

We should very rarely have "N/A" as the Test Plan. Can you amend the Test Plan to mention testing that these configs of commapp_url.json and landing_url.json work?

Back to you for Test Plan. Doesn't have to be "installing everything from scratch", but should be more than "N/A"

Updated test plan with something which should work outside or inside of nix develop. The original revision was part of the migration stack, so the logic was validated elsewhere (got apache running on m1, validating workflow now).
Since this aimed at new developers which don't have an existing Comm app on their simulator, I think it's reasonable to assume a clean slate.
